    guidelines regarding lockdown measures to be taken by Ministries/Departments of Government of
    India, State/UT Governments for containment of COVID-19 epidemic in the country. The guidelines

    offices, workplaces, factories and establishments; and, penalties for offences regarding violation of
    lockdown measures under relevant sections of Disaster Management Act 2005 and IPC, 1860.

    In order to mitigate hardship to the public, select additional activities would be allowed, which would
    come into effect from 20th April, 2020. However, these additional activities would be operationalized
    by States/ Union Territories (UTs)/ District Administrations based on strict compliance to the existing
    guidelines on lockdown measures. Before operating these relaxations, States/ UTs/ District
    Administrations shall ensure that all preparatory arrangements with regard to social distancing in
    offices, workplaces, factories and establishments, and other sectoral requirements are in place.

    The consolidated revised guidelines would not apply in containment zones, as demarcated by
    States/ UTs/ District administrations. If any new area is included in the category of a containment
    zone, the activities allowed in that area till the time of its categorization as a containment zone,
    would be suspended, except for those activities that are specifically permitted under the guidelines
    of Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), Government of India.
